WEAVING JUSTICE

by Joanne Kennedy Frazer


Bad Dog Metalworks


the great unraveling      has begun

frayed threads    of society’s      hidden
     fabric     are being pulled          violently

a crude quilt     erratically stitched     connects pieces      
     appliques      depict justice  
             point the oblivious     to cloaked truths
